or... no that looks like a carrier?
Ah, Fallout 2
Making a mad dash to the Enclave to convince them you're a recruit to pick up lategame armor (not endgame, the one on the oil rig has better resistance stats) immediately at the start....
Good times.
Is the one on the oil rig the one where you get the best dialogue line in the game?
"The President of the United Fucking States of America, who the fuck did you think I was -- what the fu- who is -- wha-- who the fuck is this, I should kick your ass!"
@Trainspotting_Vagabond I don’t want to come off as an ass here... but the three sentences you typed... literally don’t mean anything.
Before anyone here can assist you:
Define “Hard drive”
Define “Chip”
Define “Case”
I highly suspect that these words don’t mean... what you think they mean.
Yeah I have only had a PC for a year now, and this is the first time I’m considering upgrading
I don’t much space on my D and C drives
And I’m confused on the difference between these two. I’m thinking that the “chip” is for a laptop while the “case” is used for a desktop @Scale_e
I’m just not looking to buy bullshit I don’t need, you know I mean
You didn’t come off as an ass, if I don’t know what I’m talking about then I don’t know.
Ok so do you understand the basics of modern computer architecture and what the bits are
It's fine if you don't, just getting a baseline
I’m not familiar with pc hardware in the slightest lmao
Ok so, you basically have three parts to all modern machines-
the processor (does math), the storage (holds math), and the peripherals (pictures/mice/keyboards)
Ah okay, just the very basics then
In processors, you have GPUs for making pictures happen and CPUs for everything else. For storage, you need cache (that's in the CPU and the motherboard), primary (the RAM), and secondary (the hard drive, which comes in the big cheap HDD format and the costly fast SSD format). I will leave what peripherals you need up to you but you probably want either a motherboard that talks to wifi/ethernet or a card to do the same.
These bits are tied together with the motherboard, powered by the power supply, and hooked together with PCI slots and a labyrinthian morass of GLORIOUS cables
So then the question becomes, what do you need to improve in your current machine, primarily.
Ideally I’d like to increase to 4 Terabytes
So you need to check how many SATA ports your motherboard has and how many m.2, 3.5" or 2.5" bays you've got (if desktop)
Cause I have only 3 programs that take up the majority of the space on my PC
UE4
The Ark Dev Kit for modding
And Ark itself for the mods I use alongside the game
Do you know what motherboard you have, or if your computer was pre-made, what model it is?
It was built by my friend, which he sold to me. It’s worth about 1000 in total
That’s the most I know about it
k
I’m making a stop at Best Buy tomorrow, so I’ll be talking to the guys there tomorrow as well.
In the windows search, find 'system information'
In the system summary tab (left side), you should see an entry under 'system manufacturer' (right side) that says 'system model'
should look like this
What does that model say
All it says is “to be filled by O.E.M
hm
^for manufacturer
Oh, we just need model
Says the exact same thing lmao
